Abstract
⺠Sharing a river basin has no added impact on the risk of conflict outbreak in a dyad of two countries. ⺠There is no conflict-inducing effect of shared rivers over and beyond contiguity itself. ⺠A new dataset shows that nearly all neighbors in the international system share at least one river. ⺠Among river-sharing states, basins with an upstream/downstream configuration increase the risk of conflict.
